This is the Harris Tweed jacket made from fabric woven in the homes of artisans who reside in the Outer Herbides of Scotland. Drawing on their 100-year weaving tradition, the jacket bears the classic orb and Maltese Cross trademark of Harris Tweed. Using 100% virgin wool from sheep that graze the windswept isles, the tweed is dyed, spun, and handwoven on home looms in crofters as it has been done since the early 19th century. The zippered jacket's tight weave and cotton lining help ward off the cold without creating excessive bulk. Two exterior slot pockets are trimmed with supple brown goatskin and one interior pocket provides inconspicuous storage for a wallet or cell phone. Brown. (3 lbs.)

In a world of synthetic materials and mass-production, isn't it great to find handwoven cloth? If you agree, then this jacket might be something you want to consider.

The Harris Tweed of this jacket is an autumnal brown. Often we find Harris Tweed in sport jackets but if you want Harris Tweed in something more casual, then this is one of the best available. Note the leather trim used for the pockets.

The only potential downside is the two button collar. I use it on cool days to keep out the wind but if you're one who tends not to use it, you might not like the two long ends of the collar protruding out underneath your chin.
